This mosque located in the Puri Surya Jaya housing complex – Sidoarjo, which has the official name of the Al Ikhlas Mosque. But this mosque is well-known in the community as  Sarang Lebah  (Honeycomb) Mosque or An-Nahl Mosque, because honeycombs inspire most of the architectural elements used in this building. Why use honeycomb as the main idea? This mosque indeed takes the basis of the Qur’an’s 16th letter, the 68th verse of An-Nahl, which reads: “And your Lord revealed to the bees.” Bees are creatures that give a lot of parables, pro, and benefits to humankind. This mosque aims to be the “honey” to the environment, not only “sweet” physically but also gives “sweetness” in a broader context to the world.
